L’etendard sanglant est levé! (bis)
Wondering why we are singing the French national anthem @thestudio? Well, it only seemed fair to pay homage to the Gods of patisserie; especially as they created the dessert we are celebrating today… Happy National Éclair Day! Though the day was officially celebrated yesterday, we strongly believe it’s better late than never, especially when it comes to food!
Tweet your favourite pastry @studiovenues (it would give us more than a reason to celebrate it’s National Food Day)
Oh fudge, here comes another National Food Day!
Smothered in chocolate or crammed with cranberries, fudge is a delicacy made for all, with a huge variety of flavour combinations it shouldn’t prove too difficult to find one to fall in love with.
Don’t be a chump, grab a chunk! Come celebrate with us this day of fudge!
Tweet your most savoured fudge combination @studiovenues we love hearing about food.
Everyone remembers those school trips to the sea side, the fresh air complimented by the lovely summer breeze and not to mention the souvenir shops packed to the brim with different types of handcrafted regional fudge … isn’t this making you reminisce and mouth water? (more…)
If you’re hoping the UK will follow the trend of American Doughnut shops and hand them out for free… then come join thestudio on this occasion and delve into some delicious doughnuts!
Duel National Day…
Today is also National Best Friend Day and is there a better way to express your love by giving your bestie a doughnut. No good reason not to!* (Unless they don’t like them…)

We Doughnut believe it…

What is aromatic, tastes fantastic and is a classic…? No matter your age it’s hard to resist the temptation of freshly baked gingerbread! A reminiscence of Christmas or perfectly coupled with an afternoon tea, today @thestudio we celebrate National Gingerbread Day! (Yes such a thing does exist!)

Around the world…
Ginger looks unique and is definitely the life and soul of the party, featuring in both savoury and sweet dishes around the world! Not to mention it’s well known title as a super food used to soothe and treat colds, coughs, indigestion or even motion sickness. Is there something this little root can’t achieve?!
In a bid to give our stomachs a well-deserved rest, today @ thestudio we are celebrating great poetry! It makes a drastic change from celebrating National Food Days (not to worry, we will continue to supply you with treats). So keep your eyes peeled for some amazing poems dotted around the venue, including both classics and staff favourites!

So..

Of undying love and immeasurable splendours,
From Edgar Allen Poe to William Shakespeare,
We welcome you, on this day we adhere!

Well-wishing’s for the Chinese New Year…
Yes, you’ve guessed it, today is that special day which marks the revival of the Chinese calendar, so we bid adieu to the year of the Rat and welcome the year of the Goat. Alternatively known as the Spring Festival, Chinese New Year is packed full of cultural fun, from lion dancers to show stopping fireworks, the Chinese definitely know how to greet a year in style.
Money, money, money…
This auspicious occasion summons the cost-omary tradition to dish out doe in red envelopes, typically given as gifts by elders to the younger generations (lucky so and so’s). (more…)
“Why aren’t there many jokes about popcorn? Because they are corny.”
Now that this hilarious joke has grabbed your attention, we’d like to make an important announcement…. IT’S NATIONAL POPCORN DAY!
Did you know that this cinema favourite has been around for quite some time? Astonishingly enough, it was first cultivated 9000 years ago in Mexico. Wondering if they had cheese and jalapeno flavoured ones back then… (more…)
